Izaak Walton Inn - Essex, Montana

Le personnel est plus que chaleureux, j'y ai passé un séjour exceptionnel. Le cadre est magique, le restaurant est très bon, la décoration est vraiment très jolie, elle donne à l'hôtel une ambiance cosy et chaleureuse.||||Je ne pourrais recommander davantage d'y passer quelques jours. C'est simple, j'y suis allée avec une amie normalement pour une nuit, nous y sommes restées une de plus, et nous avions envie d'y rester encore, pour prendre le temps de tester le jacuzzi!||||La proximité avec la gare Amtrak est très appréciable, il y a d'ailleurs un van qui vient vous chercher à la sortie du train, et qui vous y redépose.||||Un voyage féérique qui me donne envie d'y retourner dès que possible!

Dabord les points positifs:||1. Bien pour visiter le secteur de Two Medecine de Glacier National Park||2. Propre||3. Le restaurant et cher mais de qualite||||Venons en aux points tres negatifs:||Nous avions une chambre juste aux dessus des cuisines pour deux nuits. Une chaleur epouvantable dans la chambre, pourtant dehors il faisait tres frais. Et deux systemes d`aeration idealement places juste en dessous de nos deux fenetres faisant un bruit epouvantable et faisant meme trembler les murs de la chambre.||Nous n`avons pas fermer l`oeil de la nuit. Nous avons demande a changer de chambre pour la 2eme nuit, soit disant impossible. J`ai quqnd meme reussi a avoir 20$ de reduction mais cela reste quand meme cher pour la qualite du sejour.||La chambre est minuscule, nous etions deux et soit disant la chambre est pour 3.||Bref, desole mais plus jamais. Nous aurions eu une autre chambre j`aurai peut etre nuance mon jugement.

The Loge Glacier restaurant after a year and a half renovations just opened September 1. We had the pleasure of dining here on September 5. The chef and the friendly efficient staff should be commended. Our food was absolutely excellent! You would not have known that they had just newly opened

As well we stayed in one of the old schoolhouse rooms which also just opened Sept 01. The room was modern, highly efficient and well set up. It was tastefully reappointed with consideration of its historical era. Truly one of the nicer hotel type rooms I’ve been in.

Everyone was so friendly. The locomotive #5 was amazing. Very clean and had everything you need. Beds were so comfortable. Winds were very high and the kitchen lost ventilation power. This did not stop them they cooked our meat on a grill . It was delicious.

We stayed in the school house. The rooms are very nice and comfortable. They have extra amenities in the room to borrow if needed, like yeti cooler, and bicycle lock. The trains are close by but didn't disturb my sleep. The restaurant was delicious! Fast, and friendly service!

I hate what they are doing with the place. This is a historic building with historic equipment. These guys are erasing and ruining what made it great. They need to quit getting rid of the historical stuff, and repaint the cabooses how they were originally.

Terrible to see. I definitely won’t stay there or give them my business. It was once on my bucket list as a railroad historian.

Husband and I stayed in a cabin, for 9 nights and loved it! Previously named Izaak Walton Inn and now is named LOGE of Glacier, pronouced lodge. Cabins and most train lodging cars are across the train tracks from main lodge, you get a secluded feel. It is a bit pricey but we did enjoy it. We ate in lodge restaurant the first night and it was great. We had a kitchenette in the cabin, which was nice to whip up a quick breakfast before heading out for the day. Cabin was comfortable for husband and I, good shower and bed. It sleeps 6 but we did not use the loft rooms. The fire pit and picnic table with the cabin was wonderful. Finding the turn to cabins when we first arrived was a bit tricky, it is not marked. They said if we put in Caboose Ln in GPS it would find it, but that failed for us, we did find it and then just made a mental note of what was around that turn. The road coming into the cabin area is about mile long, after you have driven on main rd (Hwy 2) for just a bit, gravel road which I am assuming is not maintained by the lodge but another entity, Flathead National forest is located right there from cabin area, but this road is a rough so you have to take it easy coming in and out. Take it slow and look for wildlife. We would leave for the day of adventuring in the area & Glacier Nat Park and not return till the end of the day. It is a bit of a drive to either entrance of Glacier but that did not bother us, it's a pretty drive and expected long drives to go anywhere in the area. Hwy 2 is what you run to get around and the speed limit is 70 so that helps. Right down the road is the Goat Lick of Glacier. We enjoyed going to the river accesses that were close to the lodge. This location has been closed for 2 years and has just reopened in Sept 2024, so the few hiccups we ran into is understandable. They are doing several improvements and some are still in progress, so patience is needed. We spoke to the activities personel and he showed us the bikes and other equipment they have to rent, looked wonderful!! I really would of liked to see more pictures of inside of lodging options on website but I am sure that is to come. The staff is wonderful! I was concerned with train sounds and that did not bother us a bit. We did bring a small oscillating fan for white noise, which we use at home, but I think we would of been fine without it. We would recommend these accomendations and hope we can return!!
